Longshen Martial Arts University.
Xuan Tianwen, who was still struggling with the first level of the Martial Tower, stumbled the moment he opened his phone.
"Of the five rising stars of the younger generation, I'm the only one who hasn't grasped Martial Will yet! Even Beiming Yan has already grasped Sword Intent?!"
And it had only been less than a month!
From these two comrades-in-distress, he was now the only one left!
Xuan Tianwen leaned against the wall, on the verge of tears.
Seeing him in this state, Liu Fufeng's lips twitched.
"The comprehension of Martial Will inherently involves an element of luck. As long as you keep experiencing battles, you'll eventually grasp it. The more unstable your state of mind, the less likely you are to comprehend it."
Xuan Tianwen tossed his phone over. "Look at Ling Qingxue's current situation. If we don't work harder, we'll still lose to her in the martial arts league three years from now. I even have a feeling that she and the Taotie will burst out at any moment!"
Liu Fufeng's expression instantly changed when he glanced at the phone, and he couldn't help but sigh.
"I thought my progress after breaking through to the Third Rank peak was fast enough, but I'm still not as good as her. She's only at the Third Rank and has mastered two Martial Arts Wills. Her martial arts talent is simply terrifying. Add to that the ferocious beast Taotie, and no one among this generation can catch up to her. This is too hard on me..."
If it were just a low-level will, he could barely accept it, since there were more types of low-level wills, and they were easier to comprehend.
But Sword Intent and Earth Will were both mid-level wills. The combination of these two wills was even stronger than his fighting spirit!
Once Ling Qingxue's level surpassed his, he would have no advantage left.
Liu Fufeng gritted his teeth, his heart hardening.
"I must go to the Dragon Flame Secret Place again. I absolutely cannot lose to her again. If I lose one more time, I fear I will have no hope of comprehending the Invincible Battle Spirit!"
...
January's enrollment period had begun, and new students from various martial arts universities were coming to register.
At the gate of Beiming Martial Arts University.
Qin Hongyan and Zhou Weiwei got out of the car together and gasped in awe at the sight of the imposing main gate.
"Luckily, Beiming Martial Arts University expanded its enrollment spots this year, otherwise I might not have been admitted at all." Zhou Weiwei said with relief.
Beiming Martial Arts University usually admitted no more than a hundred new students, but this year, they expanded by ten, which allowed Zhou Weiwei to successfully snag a spot.
According to previous years' score requirements, she was just barely above the Second Rank peak Spiritual Master cutoff.
But this year's overall results were generally quite high, with four students reaching the Third Rank late-stage, and the emergence of Ling Qingxue, the biggest dark horse in history. It was simply unbelievable!
Qin Hongyan smiled. "Being admitted is good enough. Once you're in Beiming Martial Arts University, you're guaranteed to reach at least Eighth Rank, and there's even a great chance of becoming a King Rank!"
Beiming Martial Arts University admitted fewer students, so each student received more resources. This was why such top-tier martial arts universities could cultivate so many powerful martial artists.
Strong individuals were created with resources; otherwise, where would those powerful families get their sense of superiority?
"I heard Qingxue stirred things up at Beiming Martial Arts University again, even defeating the head of the Physical Cultivation Department and dominating the trending topics. If I said I used to be Qingxue's classmate, would people ask me for autographs?" Zhou Weiwei muttered.
The very next second after she finished speaking, the surrounding new students who were registering all stopped and looked at her.
One of them, a glint in his eye, immediately pulled out a poster featuring the Taotie and sidled up.
"Hi, classmate, I'm Ma Rendong, a freshman in the Physical Cultivation Department. Could you please get Boss Ling's autograph for me? I'll pay three thousand yuan!"
Zhou Weiwei looked embarrassed. "I can't guarantee Qingxue will sign it..."
"Is three thousand not enough? I'll add more, four thousand... five thousand is fine too!"
The others were also tempted, but none were as fanatical as Ma Rendong.
"Dude, what are you doing? I admit, Boss Ling is a top genius, destined for greatness, but spending five thousand yuan on an autograph? Do you have money to burn?!"
"How about I sign one for you? I'm Su Yan, who ranked ninth in this year's national martial arts exam. My autograph is only five hundred yuan."
"That's too small-minded. A single autograph from Boss Ling can fetch tens of thousands of yuan online. When Boss Ling becomes a King Rank expert, that autograph will be worth a hundred times more. This guy has a real business sense!"
Hearing this, Qin Hongyan pulled Zhou Weiwei away.
"This guy is obviously a fake fan. I don't see any admiration in his eyes. He's probably just trying to get rich by selling autographs."
Ma Rendong immediately objected.
"No way! I can pay more! I'm a real fan, guaranteed authentic!!"
Others started to follow suit, but Qin Hongyan dragged Zhou Weiwei away.
Meanwhile, in the King-level Spirit Gathering Room.
Ling Qingxue had already consumed the Concentration Elixir, and her spiritual power was rapidly increasing. In just a few days, she would break through to the Third Rank late-stage Spiritual Master level.
Furthermore, she used the Beiming Martial Arts University's channels to acquire a portion of Weak Water and had successfully refined its spirit.
Having now refined the spirits of the five elements, the power of her Physical Cultivation was beginning to manifest.
She had also unlocked the corresponding martial skill of this Physical Cultivation level: the Myriad Spirits Fist!
By condensing the power of spirits into her fist's energy, the more elemental spirits she refined, the stronger the Myriad Spirits Fist became.
The power of the five elements was comparable to a high-grade basic fist technique.
Since there was no limit to the number of elemental spirits that could be refined in this technique, there was also no limit to the power of the Myriad Spirits Fist.
How strong she would become depended entirely on the level to which she managed to cultivate this technique!
"My current strength is more than enough to handle a Fourth Rank mid-stage opponent, and together with Wu Liang, even a Fifth Rank late-stage opponent wouldn't be a match. Military training shouldn't be too difficult..."
Originally, she wasn't worried about military training.
However, the recent expansion of enrollment and increased pressure by Beiming Martial Arts University were definitely planned, and she was aware of their intentions.
Based on her speculation, the ultimate goal of Beiming Martial Arts University's actions might be—Invincible Will!!
Invincible Will belonged to the high-level wills, on par with wills like Devouring and Space. However, as the very embodiment of invincibility, it could be said to be truly indomitable even among the top-tier wills.
This was the strongest will ever seen in the history of Blue Star, and the will that Beiming Martial Arts University most hoped would be comprehended by someone.
Beiming Martial Arts University was using the methods of its predecessors to comprehend Invincible Will by putting pressure on Ling Qingxue and Beiming Yan. Forging their own invincible hearts through countless battles would ultimately lead to achieving the breakthrough!
Once one comprehended the Invincible Will and reached the Imperial Rank, they became an Invincible Emperor, unmatched on the battlefield!
The last ancestor to comprehend the Invincible Will displayed astonishing combat power, but unfortunately, he died young before reaching the Imperial Rank. If he had lived to reach the Imperial Rank, the overall strength of humanity would have increased by more than 30%!
This was why Beiming University hoped that she or Beiming Yan would achieve the Invincible Will; it was far too precious for humanity.
Ten ordinary Emperors could not compare to one Invincible Emperor.
Top-tier wills existed only in legends; no one in humanity had yet comprehended one. However, there were several precedents for the supreme Invincible Will among advanced wills, so it was not impossible for humanity to comprehend the Invincible Will.
The appearance of the Invincible Will also meant that an Invincible Emperor belonging to the human race might soon appear in this world!
